I get what you're saying, but this is part of the mindset that allows billionaire CEOs to evade all accountability for their white-collar crime.

Sure, the judge arguably should reduce the jail sentence, but this is the law in Japan and prosecutors should pursue a penalty for contravening it, to discourage profiting off of unethical and illegal behaviour.

Just make the financial trouble for them much higher. Jail is too harsh a punishment for most crimes in my opinion.
